[quote=Anonymous]It will just be DH and our 2 kids (6 & 11) for Thanksgiving this year. We've done just the four of us before and I've previously cooked a traditional meal only to have much of it rejected by my picky kids.  Both will eat (a bit of) turkey and rolls, one eats mashed potatoes.  Stuffing, cranberry sauce and all the other typical veggie sides would only be consumed by DH and I.  We tried a ham last year and it didn't really make a difference - lot's of cooking, little pay off and grumpy kids.

For me the perfect day would be decorating our Christmas tree, a mix of football/Christmas music in the background, festive cocktails/wine for adults and everyone just having fun and enjoying good food that doesn't take a ton of time to prepare.  Any menu ideas to fit the bill?  We will also be on our own for Christmas and New Years Eve so trying to come up with a a few different ideas to make each day special.  My typical go-to is appetizers all day, but I don't want to do that 3 times over so looking for some other suggestions![/quote]
